Dear Dr. Treeby and Dr. Cox,
Like, my previous question in:
http://www.k-wave.org/forum/topic/understanding-speed-of-sound-of-the-medium#post-6190
For the 2nd case, I want to simulate plane wave ultrasound (128 elements array) propagation through homogeneous medium (water)that I generate by integrating 2D images (see the 2nd section of my code and the link for the image source).
For this simulation, I got an error that said:
Error using matlab.graphics.axis.Axes/set
and a warning: MATLAB has disabled some advanced graphics rendering featuresby switching to software openGL.
By the way, I use MATLAB 2016a version.
Thank you.
Here is my code:
